Brownies don't really do it for me. On their own, they seem a little boring, but top them with a scoop of soy ice cream and chopped nuts, and I'm all over them!

I don't think I have ever seen a healthier brownie recipe! I like my brownies dark, dark, dark, so I would probably cut the sugar and maybe add some coffee to intensify the bitter nature of cocoa. I'll definitely have to try these brownies out - thanks for this!

Coffee sounds like a great addition! I use coffee in the chocolate cake recipe I make, but never considered it for brownies.
And I used a 9 x 12 pan for baking.
